GSG NaNoWriMo 2010 Day 17 - Stickying Things Up

Day 17. 28,339 words.

I ran out of time to talk about this yesterday.

Complicate things! Make it a little sticky for our heroes. Aaron Allston suggests adding a character whose goals are tangenial to, but not aligned with, those of either the protagonist or the antagonist.

See Sherlock Holmes for an example. Or pretty much any Final Fantasy Game Ever Made (I prefer Final Fantasy 6 OR Final Fantasy Tactics A2: Grimoire of the Rift). (In all seriousness, Sherlock Holmes will only take a couple of hours. You don't have time to slog through FF6 or FFTA2:GotR. It's NaNoWriMo, for Pete's sake.)

Enjoy!
